RE: Happy, Healthy and Strong: Balancing Connection with Body + Mind
You wrote an incredibly important and well thought out article. I so agree with you. Our current society has swung the pendulum way off balance so that we ignore the natural ways of knowing and learning. We have become frightened to believe in ourselves and think that someone else always knows better, such as schools taking over the teaching of our children, and news taking over our thinking, politicians and lobbyists telling us what they will do or not do and making us accept, our court systems and legal systems committing fraud and injustices, and our society has become captive to letting it all happen, except for a very few. We need more of the education of which you shared so skillfully in your article.
I heard someone say that to change the world we must change ourselves, for we are the world, and I think this is a great way to embrace self-confidence and empower ourselves to make the changes we need as a holistic earth-bound society. Thanks for engaging with this content @shevans!
Well said; I absolutely agree, and as we each elevate our own soul, we contribute to the elevation of other souls. I think there is way too much blaming in our society; blaming ourselves and blaming others. We need to be responsible and accountable for our own behaviors but don't become stuck in guilt and shame. Acknowledge and seek ways to change oneself.
